Morgan Wallen made a powerful statement during his recent performance on Saturday Night Live, closing out his performance with a simple yet bold declaration: “Praise the Lord.” As the credits rolled, Wallen noticeably left early, later posting on Instagram, “Get me to God’s Country.” The move was seen as a rejection of Hollywood’s increasing hostility toward Christianity, setting social media ablaze with praise from fans who applauded his unapologetic faith.
Anna Lulis summed up the moment in a viral tweet: “Morgan Wallen praises Jesus during his SNL performance, then left early and posted on Instagram, ‘Get me to God’s Country’—rejecting Hollywood’s anti-Christian bias. We need more of this. Christ is King. 🙏”
Wallen’s exit was a stark contrast to the typical SNL sendoff, where performers and cast members gather for a final wave to the audience. Instead of participating in the usual Hollywood camaraderie, Wallen chose to make a different statement—one that resonated deeply with many Americans who feel their values are under attack in mainstream entertainment.
The country superstar, known for his down-to-earth persona and connection to traditional American values, has never shied away from expressing his beliefs. His actions on SNL were a refreshing pushback against an industry that often mocks faith while celebrating everything but it.
In an era where celebrities are pressured to conform to the leftist narratives of Hollywood, Wallen’s decision to stand firm in his faith and put God first is nothing short of inspiring. His words and actions weren’t just a statement—they were a reminder that real America still believes.
With Wallen leading the charge, maybe more artists will follow, proving once again that faith and country music go hand in hand.
Christ is King. ✝️
